What will you do after getting a divorce?

Ask another player for their hand in marriage!:5
Enjoy the freedom of singlehood!:2
Court an NPC (or wait for certain NPC's to become available)!:9
Marriage was never a part of my character's story.:10

Given the divorce hype (uh... this makes sense in context) this coming Feast, do you have any plans after getting that ring off your hand?

Enjoy singlehood for a while, until certain NPCs become available . . . if they ever do, that is wink If they don't, I'm just happy not to be stuck with a 'dead' spouse and able to have the choice to pick anyone smile The choice means more than anything, especially if certain NPC spouses become available, as I have my eyes on one or two wink

I can't speak for others, but i don't really like people that much. Certainly not enough to pursue it with a random stranger- i never had many RP freinds at a time. The NPC marriages are expensive and grant an affair of convenience in return with a dull and empty character. While this is good for RPing, as a blank slate can be anything, it's bad for actual romantic interest, which many people will require to pursue such a relationship.

That said, with divorce now availible, i might seek a marriage of convenience with a peer, since the story looks interesting.

I will accept all social actions that do not consume free evenings- and i will provide patronage to anyone who requests it, though it will be split between all requesters.
On psudeo-hiatus. Will be inactive and active and fluctuate without warning.

Up until now, at least, it's been entirely too permanent. I play a mostly solitary game, and don't have any desire to tie my character to someone else, especially when you were doomed to stay together for all eternity even if your partner quit the game or you break up in the outside world.

Also my character is hopelessly pining away for the Once-Dashing Smuggler, but alas, he is not the marrying type.

Was that not the obligatory "I didn't marry another player" option? Oops. That's why I voted for that one.

Too risky, after all. I don't want to retcon people out if they go inactive, so I am on the fence for now.

@Sara - Oh I now I understand. The error is on my part.

@TheThirdPolice - I heard Monster Hunters are experts in xenoanatomy although I think their range fighting skill is not their best asset. Big Grin

I'm here to avenge my murdered spouse. It wouldn't feel right, unless I met someone with an excellent knowledge of xenoanatomy and keen aim with a viric arbalest.
